Nashville Predators Have Higher Shooting Percentage In Game Than Butler Did

We’re not ones to pile on the little guy, but Butler sucked something fierce Monday night.  There’s no simpler way to put it.
It was painful to watch.  It was like watching girls high school basketball, where no one ever makes a shot.  A complete waste of time.
I mean, 41 points? Embarassing.  They shot a record-worst [...]

The One And Done Rule Is Killing College Basketball

Butler versus Virginia Commonwealth?  Yawn.
People love the NCAA tournament because of bracket challenges, Gus Johnson’s on-airgasms, and early round upsets.  Don’t get me wrong… I love watching a 13 seed knock off a 4 as much as anyone, but that’s where I draw the line.  Watching Butler and VCU play in the final four?  Give [...]

Someone Actually Picked This Final Four, 2 Out Of 5.9 Million

5.9 Million brackets were submitted to ESPN.com’s 2011 NCAA Tournament Challenge.

Ten Biggest Surprises Of The Sweet 16

So far so good. We have had our share of upsets, and we have seen some buzzer beaters. For all of you March Madness junkies, what’s gone on so far should be enough to get your fix. Most of us had Ohio State and Kansas getting pretty deep in the tourney, but I’m guessing there [...]

Take This To The Bank, Why WVU Will Win The Whole Shebang

The shock of Calipari-ball getting lost in the forests of W. Virginia coupled with John Wall decidedly declining to rise to the occasion should have sunk in by now.
Before we declare anyone overrated or Evil, let’s just take a moment and remember that the only time a team composed almost entirely of freshman reached the [...]

You Had Butler Picked, Right? And West Virginia Too?

I assume that every one of your brackets are thoroughly f**ked. 
Butler beat a very good Kansas State team today, not with smoke and mirrors, but by being absolutely relentless.  They are a very good team (who plays like a team) who boasts of the nation’s longest winning streak at 24.  I don’t care what conference [...]

A Final Four Worth Talking About

Every year there are upsets. Teams like (1) Kansas and (2)Villanova just decide that they do not feel like playing, and 1 or 2 of these smaller schools sneak through to the 2nd round and sometimes even the Sweet 16.
But this year is different than any other. I would have to say that so far [...]
